Wilting In The Rain
Water fills my lungs
Clouds hide the sun
Any hope, any chance
Has now turned to none
Arms held down
By the weight of my sins
Succumbed to the flesh
That has rusted yet again

Oh ye of little faith
So lost in the past
A daring escapade
Entering at last
I can see it in your eyes
Tears of yesterday
I'd reach out my hand
But you wouldn't take it anyway

I can't recall
A time you ever lied
I believed you as honest
Were you acting this time
To laugh or to cry
To love or reside
Wishing you'd save me
But left by my side
